Preheat the oven to350℉. Line or grease a cookie sheet.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, egg, and melted butter until combined and smooth.
Stir in the cake mix just until all of the dry ingredients are incorporated into the wet ingredients. Don’t overmix the dough.
Add the chocolate chips to the dough and fold in until distributed throughout.
Use a cookie scoop or spoon to scoop even balls of the cookie dough. Use your hands or the bottom of a glass to slightly flatten them into a disc shape.
Bake the cookies on the middle rack in batches for 13-16 minutes or until they are cooked all the way through. The cookies should spring back if pressed once they are cooked.
Let the cookies set on the baking pan for 3-5 minutes, then transfer them to a cooling rack.

The brand of cake mix doesn’t matter as long as you use a 15.25-ounce package. Use your favorite.

Please note that the recipe uses canned pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling, which is different.

Store leftovers at room temperature for three days or in the fridge for up to 5 days.
